What works
Almost everything I use
What does not
Cannot read camera raw data. This is the one thing holding me back from switching to strictly linux based operating systems. I shoot raw on a daily basis and cannot process it in photoshop on linux.
Workarounds
What was not tested
I have tested almost all normal day-to-day functions. I have yet to run into any major issues outside of the camera raw issues mentioned earlier.
Hardware tested

I'm beginning to wonder if it works better on AMDGPU, Intel Open Graphics and other Open Drivers.

Nvidia just struggles and locks up more on Arch wine staging using the blob. I never expected usability and stability to improve but it has on open Intel drivers.

Also, you mentioned that the 'guides are weird'. If there isn't a bug filed for that it might be worth to add it.

I had problems with installation since it always failed. I was experiencing similar problems after installation.
This winetricks line helped to install & to launch:
$ winetricks -q atmlib gdiplus msxml3 msxml6 vcrun2005 vcrun2005sp1 vcrun2008 ie6 fontsmooth-rgb gecko
After that I was able to launch successfully only 32-bit version.
PS works quite good, but drawing tools are still not working properly. And that's sad. Also, after first start PS noticed me that something is wrong with graphics acceleration (I have Intel HD 4400). But other things seems to be working and it is stable.

I too have experienced issues where some tools will not properly draw when holding the mouse down. Sometimes I can draw squiggles, sometimes it's just a dot.
Thankfully I found a workaround to this issue in tool options.
Simply turn off 'Spacing' for each drawing tool (Brush, Eraser, Pencil, etc). After that, dots should be no more.
This solution may work on older Photoshops.

Quick fix for those dots & lines is to use older wine version, which is originally used in POL: 1.7.46-stagging
